Kaatrin Kural Episode 8
where you can listen to participant Sindhuja's verbal waterfall listing of composers whose songs were part of MSS' vast and varied repertoire.
Inspired by Sindhuja, we are enclosing below a sample of MSS' repertoire, starting with Pre-Trinity Composers and also sharing a few examples of the songs of each composer.
The multiple sources for this information include Sindhuja's comprehensive list in the above video, MSS discography compiled by Navaneet Venkatesan(a student of Smt Radha Viswanathan), song lists in MSS concerts on Sangeethapriya.org website, wikipedia sites including http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Carnatic_composers, the Compositions of the Trinity and Svati Tirunaal books compiled and edited by Shri T.K. Govinda Rao ...
This is just a starter list that gives a glimpse into the range of compositions that MSS has sung over multiple decades and does not come anywhere close to the complete repertoire of MSS.
